  • @QLFProductions

    I really appreciate this video. I consider myself pretty handy and I had my wiper motor go out, I changed the motor and linkage. I can see everything working before I put the wipers on but as soon as I put the wipers on, the wipers don't move. The motor is working and the linkage is trying to move but the wipers jump but they don't move. Any advice? I can't believe wipers are getting the best of me.

    Mark the post top, then down the threads and mark the wiper arm one continuous marking to replace the arm easily. I would not recommend using a hammer against the windshield, it may work. But it may not. Metal and glass

    So after doing this I bought brand new wiper arms, that dont have the spline pattern already tapped into the hole where they slide on. The stalks of the wiper transmission of course do. Is it same procedure or am I then going to strip the stalks on the transmission? Not sure how to attach them…

    1. using a hammer is dangerous for your windshield. 2. You have to make sure that you put the arm on the toothed bolt correct othervice you damage the arms teeth

  • @ScottMiller-tu3gg
    @ScottMiller-tu3gg 3 місяці тому +1

    First of all, it`s called a nut not a bolt. Inside of the wiper arm hole and the shaft are splines - not rivets. You are damn lucky you didn`t crack the windshield doing it this way. Very, very poor video! Guys - DO NOT use this method!
